Crafty Question

I want to burn a fairly small hole through several (?many) layers of paper. 'Burn' can be chemical or flame. Have experimented with matches / lighter but can't control size or depth of hole. Suggestions?

I cannot believe you are seriously advising me to play with electricity. Eeeeeee! *fizzle sputter bang*

I could just apply [livejournal.com profile] latexiron of course.

Fair point. [grin] I was thinking artistic solutions, rather than safety. How about a soldering iron?

You could - but I'd suggest that you provide him with the materials and let him get on with it elsewhere. Although I suspect the plasma cutter might go through paper like ... well, a plasma cutter through paper ... I'm not sure what size hole it would create. An arc-welder spark might do the job ...
